Anyone tried these?
Its cold at night(low 30s) in Vegas but only for a couple of months.I dont want to make a major investment in cold weather gear I wont use for the other 10 months a year.

For about 20 bucks you should get a set. I hope you don't consider that a major investment.

I was just wondering if anyone had tried these,I am not expecting $200 performance for $20 but I figure someone on here has to have tried them already.

$20 for something that is worthless is a major investment

At a minimum you'll have claimed waterproof breathable gloves with the nice gauntlet style cuffs for 20 bucks, still not a bad deal. If you get any amount of warmth from them I would say it's definitely worth it. Might cost you a bit on batteries though.

Yes, I tried them last year, They work well if you are not in the wind, they are not wind proof. You will need either a glove liner or something over them to take advantage of the battrey powered heat...
